Richard Currie is a Syngenta Senior Fellow in Global Product Safety’s Science Strategy function, based at the Jealotts Hill International Research Centre (Bracknell, UK). He champions the use of mechanistic toxicology and modern approaches to risk assessment. His research interests are in the development and application of modern approaches such as SAR, mechanism of toxicity (including MOA/AOPs), multi-omics methods & interpretation, and in vitro assays and quantitative systems models for toxicology, ecotoxicology and environmental fate. He is a leader for the identification, development, and deployment of new approaches that enhance the capabilities of our research teams to invent new safe and sustainable crop protection active ingredients. Through his consultancy and advocacy internally and externally, via his work with others, he illustrates the potential for modern approaches to be applied in risk assessment problems now and in the future.
